Re: Low buck projects- Let's see 'em!

Arm rest:
Just slapped together a 2x3 and a 1x4... I had some cherry walnut stain laying around, and some polyurethane... Cost = $0 (used parts I already had kicking around). 3 inch drywall screws into the bulkhead, and I counter sunk the screws. I like will use my coring tool to create some plugs for the 1x4. It's just pine, but it protects the front of the stereo.

I'm sure there's a pill for that!

And I'm sure someone here could figure out how to make that pill out of scrap lumber, for less than $100.

If you go back to the beginning, you'll see
posts that you've forgotten and ideas that
you weren't ready to use but now you are.
Great pastime.

Show us your lathe too - is a bowl lathe or conventional?

It's a jet entry level lathe. #1236, I think they don't make it anymore.

got me wondering about it... I bought this thing about12 years ago. Harbor fright sells the same thing with their name on it. So.. it's a JWL-1236 but a retagged offshore make like just about everything we buy. All that aside it's great for my modest turning needs.
